Mazda CX-5 2017

FROM
$13,090

The 2017 Mazda CX-5 range of configurations is currently priced from $10,999.

Our most recent review of the 2017 Mazda CX-5 resulted in a score of 7.9 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The new CX-5 has certainly picked up where the old one left off, and is better in every way. The new diesel is a cracker and the safety package belongs on a much more expensive car.

Ford Falcon: What's a good replacement?

There’s no good reason to not buy a Falcon, parts will be available for many years yet. There’s the Commodore, but it too is out of production. Other than that there’s no similar sized car available for you. You need to think about getting an SUV, such as a Toyota Kluger, Kia Sorento, Mazda CX-5.

What's the best family SUV to buy?

As you say, the choice is bewildering. All the models you have been looking would be suitable; you could also look at the Nissan X-Trail. I would go for either the Mazda CX-5 or the Kia Sportage, but that's not to say the others aren't worth considering. Why don't you go shopping and check each of them out to see how they fit your needs.
